Mimurosugi木桶菩提元 山田錦原酒生酒無濾過おりがらみ発泡水酛

つなはち
This is one of the bottles I purchased during the new sake rush at the end of the year. At first, I was going to open it on New Year's Day, but then I found a bottle of Boshimoto Mimuro Sugi labeled for the Year of the Snake, so I opened that one on New Year's Day. The other day it was Kikuhime, so I thought I'd open a lighter sake 🍶. However, it took me about 15 minutes to open the bottle, probably because it was still fermenting in the bottle😅. It has a slight sourness like Bodaiyuan yogurt, but the sweetness is quite moderate, and the gentle sweetness of the rice and the strong carbonation stimulates the stomach, making you hungry the more you drink it 😋. It was great as an aperitif and very good as a mid-meal drink 😁.

出張等でしばらく家呑みが出来ない状況でしたが、やっとゆっくりお酒と向き合えました🍶 こちらは4年前❓くらいに石川県加賀市に旅行に行った際に一度だけ呑んだ事があるお酒🍶 美味しかったという事しか覚えてなく、味わすっかり忘れてしまったんで、今回は家呑みで向き合います🤔 いざ呑んでみると、一瞬クラシックな米の旨味を感じつつも、すぐにヨーグルト❓っぽい甘酸味がやってきて、スルスルっと口に溶け込む感じ🤔 アルコール19度なんで、お酒呑んでる‼️っていう呑みごたえはありますが、アルコール臭さは全くなくとても呑みやすい🤔 これはやはり無茶苦茶美味いですねぇ😁 菊姫は今まで、居酒屋でしかほとんど呑んでなく、最近家呑みリストになったんですが、今後もディグり甲斐がありますねぇ😊

It's been years since I've had a Toichi 🍶. It's a classic rice sweet and tasty at the beginning of drinking, but then the sweet and sour taste like yogurt ⁉️ starts to seep in 🤔. It is a gentle classic in general 🤔. I personally really liked it with appetizers and light fish 😊.

I had drunk Hirotogawa's nigori sake once before in the restaurant 🍶. I was very much looking forward to it 😊. Opened with no difficulty, but the fizz was a bit strong 🤔. Nice balance of sweetness and effervescence 🤔. I thought it was less sweet than I expected, but when I paired it with a meal, wow 🤭. The sweetness of the sake is more pronounced and both the meal and the sake become a double game of deliciousness 🤭. I thought it was for aperitifs, but it's also very nice as an in-between-dinner drink 👍

I was talking with the clerk at the liquor store I've been frequenting since last year about the new Junmai version of Jyushidai Honmaru Kakushin, and I told him that I've never had it before. I'm also a bit of a philanderer 😁. I was so happy with the sake that I gave them away at the New Year's party with all my relatives 🤭. It's clear, beautiful and looks like drinking water 🤔. The more I drink, the more beautiful my body becomes 😊. It's a luxurious start to the year to be able to drink such wonderful sake together 🤗.

I couldn't drink on New Year's Day this year because I was busy with work😅. I've got to get back on track and the first sake I'm having this year is a limited edition sake for the year of the snake 😊. Recently, Nara's sake breweries have been releasing sake brewed with Bodaiyuan, or the ancestor of the Bodaiyuan. A few years ago, it was just a sweet and sour sake that I didn't like to drink, but recently Bodai Yuan has been producing some very nice sake 😤. This sake is one of them 🤔. It's clear and fruity like a melon, absurdly delicious 😋. Happy to start the new year with the best sake 😁.

The annual drinking end 🍶. I used to have an impression that Sakusaku's new sake was very gorgeous, but since last year, the quality of the sake seems to have calmed down and I felt a little let down when I first started drinking it because I expected it to be gorgeous 🤔. But I drank it while complaining and consumed 2 gou in about 30 minutes like drinking water 😅. My wife was beside me and said "you look like you're drinking like you're really enjoying it" 😅. I was drinking like a tsundere 🤭.

I usually don't write about what I think about drinking at a restaurant, but this is my first extra entry in a while 🍶. Yesterday, I went to a restaurant where I have always been a regular customer to have dinner and greet the New Year's Eve. I thought the rice polishing ratio of 11% was amazing, but the taste was classic 🤔. I have never had such a beautiful classic 🤔. I think it's one of the best classic 🤔, although it's a different vector from Ishidaya of Kuroryu. It's so great, I was even impressed 🥹.

We got it again this year 🍶🍶. Snow Christmas 🍶 at Akabu. We toasted 🥂 while watching the live Christmas live streaming of our idol 😊. I was told to be careful when opening the bottle, but I could hardly feel any gas 🤔. As usual, it is light and easy to drink 🤔. It went very well with western appetizers 😊.

I drink a fair amount at pubs, but I've never had it at home. Moderate but firm sweetness🤔. It has a very nice classical sweetness that reminds me of Japanese chestnuts, gently but firmly assertive 😋.

The new Mimuro sake, an annual treat! The bottle was opened successfully after 5 minutes of fumbling to get it open 😁. Pleasant fizz and melon🍈 in the first half, melon🍈 with a bit of rind in the second half🤔. All in all, a high class melon soda for adults 😋! Too delicious 😋😋.

I haven't had a drink in a very long time 🍶. I think this is the first time I drink it at home 🤔. The aroma is quite gorgeous 🤔. When I drink it, I can taste the fruity flavor and some apple-like sourness 🤔. I think it's a sake that can be enjoyed all round before and during dinner 😊.

I wanted to drink dry sake like the counter ❓ from Koei Kiku the other day, so I put in Harushika for the first time in a long time 🍶. It has a dry taste as it is called "super dry", but I can also taste some fruitiness like pineapple 🤔. It is 18% alcohol, so of course it has a sake-like taste, but it also has a rounded and mellow taste that makes it easier to drink than you think 🤔. Pork with ginger was the snack of the day, and this mild yet robust flavor was very good 😋.

Long time no see Koei Kiku 🍶. I bought it to drink light and pop 😁. Moderate gassiness 🍶 with some grapefruitiness A little bit of grapefruit flavor ❓. The double punch of the sweetness and slight carbonation keeps the drink flowing 😋. This time of year, all the breweries are putting out their specialties, and the sake is just too good to resist 😅.

It's been a while since I've had a Gobashi sake. Generally, junmai sake is brewed with 80% rice and 20% koji, but this sake is brewed with 45% rice and 55% koji 🍶. It has a unique sweet and sour taste that I don't know how to describe ⁉️🤔. If I had to say, it's like a yeast yeast 🤔. It has a honey-like color and a tender taste like a matured sake 🤔. The taste is classic but with a touch of citrus 🤔 It was a strange taste that I have never felt before, but it is a very good sake 😋.

I bought it because I wanted to drink a fruity wine 🍶. Gorgeous, fruity, a little sour and grapey like Pioneer 🍇, very tasty 😋. I left it open for a day and when I drank the rest, I felt a bit of dryness in the second half that I didn't feel when I opened the bottle 🤔. I have the impression that the taste changes quite quickly 🤔 But it is delicious 😋.

I will drink again this year as I did last year 🍶. The aroma of the freshly opened bottle was a little alcoholic, but after drinking it, I didn't feel any alcohol at all🤔. The sweetness comes first and disappears in the second half 🤔. So I don't get tired of drinking it, so I have the impression that I can drink it forever 😋.

My second new sake of the year is Amami 🍶. The gas is just a little bit of a whiff 🤔. First the top clear 🍶. Sweet and tasty 😋. Next, including the orizumi 🍶. Mellow sweeter flavor 😋. This is delicious 😋. Yesterday we had a pork bone base lettuce nabe, and the sweetness of the pork bone base soup and the sweetness of the amami go absurdly well together 😋.

I haven't had this in an absurdly long time 🍶. Very rich mouthfeel🤔. Sweet and umami at the same time, with a little lingering complexity in the second half 🤔. It's a great sake that makes you want two or three more cups 😋.
